Goin' Up
(Great Big Sea)
Chords transcriped by Barry O'Brien
Well come [G]gather all around [C]me.
There is s[G]omething you should [D]know.
There is [G]no place quite like th[C]is place.
If we g[G]et it on the [D]go.
So, pile your books up in the corner.
Hang your jackets from the door.
There's thirty people in the kitchen.
And there's always room for more.
(Chorus)
[G]Oh-[C]Oh-[D]Oh, Come on now.
[G]Let's [C]lock the [D]world outside.
[G]Oh-[C]Oh-[D]Oh Come on I [G]tell you now
She's [C]goin' [D]up to[C]night.
[G] [C] [G] [D]
[G] [C] [G] [D]
Well there'll be music all around you.
You should see the way it feels.
Come on off we go now heal in toe now.
To the jigs and reels.
Well somebody's got a fiddle.
And someone else brought a guitar.
We got Bobby on the squeeze box.
Got my chair and mason jar.
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
Well there'll be smiling there'll be laughing.
Well that's good enough for me.
There'll be dancing all around you.
This is where you want to be.
So pile your books up in the corner.
Hang your jackets from the door.
There's thirty people in the kitchen.
And there's always room for more.
(Chorus)

Goin Up (Great Big Sea)
I am part of a Celtic/NEwfoundland Band and we do covers of a number of
songs by Great Big Sea. I know people give it their best effort but I am
tired of seeing songs posted for Great Big Sea that are totally wrong. It's
confusing for the beginner. Thus, I thought I'd make my contribution.
Here's the proper way to play Goin' Up by Great Big Sea. Trust me this is
correct, as we play this just like them, including all the accordian parts
(which our accompanying guitar must match). Hope this helps with at least
some of the confusion on how to play Great Big Sea songs.G C Am D
Well come gather all around me
There is som[G]ething you shou[C]ld know[D]

Well there'll be music all around you
You should see the way it feels
Come on off we go now
Heel and toe now
To the jigs and reels
'Cause somebody's got a fiddle
And someone else bought a guitar
and we got Bobby on the squeezebox
Grab a chair and mason jar

Well there'll be smilin', there'll be laughin'
Well that's good enough for me
There'll be dancing all around you
This is where you want to be
So pile your boots up in the corner
Hang your jacket from the door
There's thirty people in the kitchen
And there's always room, yes there's always room...
Well come gather all around me
There is something you should know
There's no place quite like this place
If we get it on the go
